Said it last thread and will say it this thread straight off the bat. Sydney deserved the flag. You cannot concede 8 goals to 0 in the second quarter of a grand final and still expect to win, especially against a side who are as amazing at putting on pressure as Sydney were. Sydney knew that if you out Hawthorn under pressure, they fall to shit. That's exactly what happened.

Lake coming over will help us a lot down back and will HOPEFULLY transform Schoenmakers from being a complete shit truck into an amazing defender.
